Then I assume, because having holidays count as off peak obviously means
so much to you that you must whine about Sprint's not doing it every
time a major holiday like Memorial Day comes around, that you must have
switched to either Verizon or AT&T already.

If you haven't switched, then why not?

BUT , it will give him something to complain about so as far as he's
concerned it evens out.

Why does Robert M always has to make it a point to post this same message
for every holiday? Get over it already.

In any event, happy Memorial day to everyone. Let's try to spend the
day with our loved ones (if we can) and salute those in uniform who have
served and are serving our country.

Hey, has anyone "paid" their way to Hell? I always thought it was a trip via
Frequent Flyer miles earned through bad deeds ...
